I'm going to get two 22" monitors tomorrow. My budget is already tight but I can squeeze two of the Samsung 2232BW in. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-SM [...] s_ce_img_2

They have a response time of 5ms. If I pay a bit more I can get a model with 2ms but this would really break my budget and I try to avoid that. Is it really a difference you notice? I will play here and then games but my computers main purpose is not just gaming.

ah i wouldnt trust the reponse time since different companies use different methods to get the RT, most use grey to white to grey, rather than black to white to black. so really your 2ms monitor is prob like a 12ms time. but if you are comparing 2 monitors from the same company then yer go with the lowest, since it will redice motion blur
